I purchased one in 84 and used for a few years and loved it. I found it on
the heavy side, but to me wieght equates with quality, It easily came down
for transport, the bellows clipped out, the two standards flolded flush
along the axis of the monorail and packed very flat. a bag bellows came with
it. When I sold it, on getting married, Robert White in Poole, put me
through a few hoops regarding the movements of the front standard, I gather
the more you paid, the more you got, mine it turned ot had them all. In
those days in was one down from a sinar.

Amos
